I was thinking that it might be nice to have a post where we could rate all the different boat manufacturers. I think this would be helpful for people who are buying boats, as this would help with the buying experience. I don't want this to get negative and bash different makes, but just to discuss what's out there and how they rate for the money.<br /><br />For example: How would people rate the following manufacturers? I've listed only a few to get us started. When I ask how would people rate these makes, I'm asking about reputation, quality, design, cost, and any other comments that might be helpful.<br /><br />Bayliner<br />Glastron<br />Chaparral<br />Fourwinns<br />Seaswirl
